Athletics

“GO!”  Whaea Meri said. BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! the ground was shaking as we all ran up the lane, I was running with determination. My heart was beating faster than my moving feet. I was moving so fast that when I was running with my mouth open, the sun was drying it up. I had butterflies as I was storming towards the finish line. I thought to myself, let’s win this time. I was moving my arms with my legs trying to pump them faster so I can pick up speed. I was sweating like a waterfall.

I couldn’t see anyone beside me so I thought that it is a positive as no one was catching up. “GO Esmonde! Go Esmonde!” the blue team was shouting as I ran past them, getting closer to the finish line. My legs were pounding and aching. “YES” I said as I passed the line. I was shocked that I had won. One of my goals was to win and I achieved that goal because I won.

The End.
